Mike,

The bad news is, RIPE is in a post-scarcity world. Welcome. 😁

When I joined over a decade ago, I was so happy to see 100k in my account. Now I have 150M+, and this is after giving them out even after I can see that the recipient has reached the target. I normally add a private message saying this 10M is for their next project. 

I regret to inform you that my attempts to convert these into Delta SkyMiles has been unsuccessful. Or McDonalds Happy Meals. 

Someone, somewhere, should do something, or I will join Twitter and display my outrage!!!!

OK, here's my "problem."

For starters I think the Atlas project is a great thing for the
Internet, and I thank my local ISP, Comcast (USA), for encouraging me to
sign up.

But here's the thing for me.   I have so many millions of points
accumulated.

When I see a message on this message list about someone asking for, say
20 million points, by the time I see that message, the requester has
already received, typically, more than twice the number of points requested.

(and I will say right now, private requests for points will be ignored)

So my question becomes...

I participate in this amazing project with a measurement device.  But I
also want to participate in the project by helping others,

I guess I am asking, is there a way I can contribute points without
having to check the list every hour or so?
